I forgot the most important question: what was the fleet numbers of the 1971-76 GM's and the 1982-85 Neoplans (I know the An435's were the 1300's,and those Neoplans were 8000's but i need to know the specific numbers)
The newest GM New Looks (Fishbowls) that SEPTA owned were built in 1970. All the 1971-76 buses were Flxible New Looks. The GM buses numbered #4450-#4457 were baby Old Looks, built in 1964 & 1966, & acquired with Schuylkill Valley Lines in 1977. They were the original fleet for Frontier Division. The 35 foot RTSes were numbered #4458-#4470 a few years later so as to follow in order with them.

The 40 foot RTSes were numbered from #8000 up to #8284. The 40 foot Neoplans were numbered from #8285 up to #8584, then from #8601 to #8875. Numbers #8585 to #8589 & #8591 to #8600 were not used. #8590 was used for SEPTA's only 40 foot Volvo. The roster link above gives more details.
